FCC Ruling: Will it affect online poker???
FCC Ruling
The gist of the article is that broadband lines are now an "information service" and not a part of traditional telephone service. Thus, broadband services are not subject to traditional telephone rules/laws. I think I remember the question about the legality of online poker revolved around the fact that it was gambling over a telephone line, which is prohibited by law. I think this new ruling negates any questions about online gambling being illegal, since it is not done over a telephone line as the FCC sees it, and therefore is not subject to the Wire Act. What do you think? |
